I was a big pro wrestling fan when I was growing up in southern Oregon. I was a huge fan of one local wrestler who called himself "Beauregard, the Sensation of the Nation". He was so cool, I just had to start a fan club for him. I remember going over to my grandmother's house, cutting stencils for the mimeograph machine, and sending out a 6-page newsletter about pro wrestling. Wow, if only I have waited about 40 years for the Internet to come around, it would have been easier to get the word out. And with the services offered by today's Family First site, it would have taken little or no time, and not cost an arm and a leg.

The site we are visiting today is called Newsfromus.com, a website whose forte is to help families, friends, business associates, and others, to stay in touch. Many families use newsletter let other know the latest family news, but did you ever stop to think about the cost of that type of publication. After factoring in ink, paper, envelopes, stamps, labor (someone has to put them in the envelopes), and the software to put it all together, the average cost of sending a newsletter to 25 people is $47.95! Boy, does Newsfromus have a more cost effective method, and you can reach a larger audience. Using their quick and easy step-by-step process, you can create and send your family newsletters to up to 100 people for only $9.99, and there are even special editions that you can send for only $1.99. There is an ever growing list of these Special Editions to choose from, including a "letter to Santa and A letter from Santa," that can be personalized for your own child or children. The cost for these are $1.99 each which is the lowest price I have seen anywhere!!

How does one do this, you ask? It is quite simple. You visit the Newsfromus.com website, and join up. By joining them, you have access to all of the Member Tools including a personalized Address Book (for storing emails, addresses, etc) and Easy-to-Use step by step Wizards to help you create and send your Newsletter or Special Edition. After joining, you will need to purchase one of their inexpensive packages which range from single Newsletters or Special Editions to multiple item packages. You can send just one Newsletter or Special Edition or send one a month with any of our packages. Once you have purchased your Newsletters, Special Editions or package, you are able to walk through the easy-to-use step by step wizard to add your text and images, choose your recipient list and preview your work. You are able to save your work at any point if you need to return to it at a later time. At the last step of the Wizard, you choose your recipient list and click the SEND & PUBLISH button. Within a short period of time, your friends and family will be reading what you wrote! Easy as 1-2-3 or A-B-C.

So if you are looking for a way to keep your family in touch, this is the best online site I have seen that offers both design and dissemination. Making use of the cutting edge technology of the Internet enhances the speed at which you can get your messages out. It really is nice being able to send your newsletters around the world in seconds, rather than waiting weeks for international mail to deliver it. I guess it really is a small world after all.
